Bleacher Report
| Expert | Prediction |
|---|---|
| Briggs Seekins | Klitschko KO under 6 |
| Kevin McRae | Klitschko TKO Round 7 |
[sc:Other240banner ]Briggs Seekins of Bleacher Report believes that Tyson Fury is a big man capable of knocking out an aging Wladimir Klitschko. The fight was already delayed due to a training injury to Klitschko’s calf. But realistically, the most likely outcome for him is a Klistchko knockout within six rounds. The old lion is just too much better technically, which gives him the edge against an aggressive Fury.
Kevin McRae is also backing Klitschko winning by technical knockout in the seventh round. McRae notes that Fury has already been dropped by Steven Cunnigham, a 6-foot-3 cruiserweight, and the unknown Neven Pajkic in his career. Klitschko is much better and bigger than those two fighters, which should give him an edge.
McRae also notes that Fury will come out guns blazing, looking to end Klitschko’s night early. But his hyper aggressive ways should lead to mistakes, which Klitschko will be too willing to take advantage of.

| Guy Docetoni | Klitschko TKO |
Heavy.com’s Guy Docetoni says that anything can happen in Saturday’s fight with an unpredictable Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klistchko’s suspect chin. He also says that a professional heavyweight fight could make the odds seem too wide as one perfect punch could end either boxer’s night. But Docetoni still believes that Klitschko has all the tools to take over the fight early in the second half to win by technical knockout.
International Business Times
| Expert | Prediction |
|---|---|
| Greg Price | Klitschko by decision |
Count International Business Times’ Greg Price as one of Wladimir Klitschko’s believers. He has the Ukrainian winning his 22nd straight fight by a 12-round decision. But Price also notes that Klitschko should have his hands full.
Fury is younger, bigger and more powerful than Klitschko. He also has the ability to switch from orthodox to southpaw to open up plenty of angles. But all of Fury’s advantages could be wiped off by Klitschko’s maturity and patience in the ring, making him a deserved favorite.
There you have it. The experts have sounded off on their predictions. It’s time to create a betting account and cash in on the biggest heavyweight fight this year.
